To the editor:

Tax time is here again. VITA/TCE would like to invite people with income of $57,000 or less to come to our site for free tax preparation and e-filing.

VITA/TCE is staffed by IRS-certified volunteers, connected to the nonprofit Realities Focus and sponsored by the IRS. Our goal is to provide a free service to low- to moderate-income individuals and families, as well as senior citizens.

We meet 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday through Thursday at First United Methodist Church, 533 N. Grant Ave., beginning Feb. 4 and going through April 15. The office will be closed Feb. 18 for Presidents Day).

There are no appointments given; just come and wait your turn. Bring your photo ID, Social Security cards or ITIN numbers for every person you are claiming on your return, W-2 and 1099 forms of income, any other necessary papers and forms including letters from the IRS or state of Colorado, and a copy of last year's tax return, if available.

For further information call 2-1-1 or 599-1794.

For information on Fort Collins or Windsor VITA locations, either call 2-1-1 or search irs.gov, keyword VITA, to find the site nearest you.

A total of 25 VITA volunteers look forward to serving you in Loveland.
